Journal of Third Military Medical University 1983;0(04):-
The dynamic changes of 64 cases of primary bronchogenic carcinoma were reviewed with their serial chest films.Obstructive pneumonitis was found in 26 cases,of which 17 showed a dense and/or enlarged hilar shadow on the first chest film.Inflammation could be minimized after treatment but the hilar shadow remained dense and/or enlarged.Hilar masses could appear after total absorption of inflammation.Thus increased density and/or enlargement of the hilar shadow could be considered as an important sign of obstructive pneumonitis.Solitary pulmonary nodule(SPN)was found in 36 cases.The nodules with a diameter smaller than 2 cm on the first chest film usually showed a high incidence of vacuolization and could be taken as an early sign of lung carcinoma.The nodules with a diameter larger than 2 cm usually suggested the malignant nature of the lesion if they exhibited an increased tendency to have spicule sign.tabulation sign,or linear shadows in lung parenchyma which might be clearly or blurrily demarcated and connected the nodule with the pleura.No vacuolization was seen in those nodules larger than 3 cm in diameter.The appearance of pleural indentation showed no relation to the size of the nodule.The dynamic changes of the nodulessmaller than 2 cm in diameter were emphatically observed and they usually appeared as a small piece of thin cloudiness,a small nodule,or a reticu-lonodular shadow on the first chest film.The measures to increase the detection of the nodular lesion smaller than 2 cm in diagmeter on a chest film were discussed.In addition,a rare early feature of lung adenocarcinoma,which showed a large piece of interstitial changes,was presented.

Objective To investigate Hysterothylacium aduncum (Anisakidae) infection in marine fishes from Bohai Sea and Yellow Sea. Methods Nematodes were collected from the digestive tract of fishes, fixed with hot 4% formalin and preserved in 70% ethanol for study. The specimens were cleared in lactophenol for light microscopical examination, and properly treated for scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results Among the fishes examined, 14 out of 93 species (15.1%) were found infected by H.aduncum, with a higher prevalence in the fish of Lophius litulon(66.7%), Scomber-omorus niphonius(47.5%), and Gadus macrocephalus(33.3%). H.aduncum infection was first recorded in elasmobranch-Raja smirnovi. Morphological differences of H.aduncum were observed, including the width of lateral alae and the length of intestinal caecum. Conclusion H.aduncum in fishes of Bohai Sea and Yellow Sea in China may be a complex species, and its high prevalence in some fishes reminds the risk of anisakiasis by eating raw fishes.

Objective To study the relationship between gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and Helicobacter pylori (H.pyori) infection retrospectively. Methods The paraffin embedded samples of the tumors in gastric intestinal tract and its corresponding normal tissues from 35 patients with non Hondgkin's lymphomas in gastric intestinal tract were sectioned. The slides, except routine histopathologic study, were submitted to immuno histochemical staining (CD 3,CD 5,CD 10 ,CD 20 ,C 23 ,CD 45 RO, kappa, lamda, cyclin, Ki67, TUNEL) and to HE staining for the detection of H. pylori infection. Results ①Twenty one cases were identified to be MALT lymphomas according to the results of immunohistochemical staining, of them 16 cases were gastric MALT lymphomas, 1 case of intestinal MALT lymphoma, and 4 cases of colonic MALT lymphomas. ② H. pylori infection in gastric MALT lymphoma was 100% except in 3 cases who had only tumor tissues, which could not be evaluated. ③ Two cases were stage Ⅰ 1 gastric MALT lymphomas, 5 were stage Ⅱ 1,and 9 were stage Ⅱ E. ④ Only 6 cases had recognized as gastric MALT lymphomas by endoscopy and biopsy. Three patients were misdiagnosed as gastric cancer, 1 as M?n?trier disease, 1 as atrophic gastritis, and 5 as chronic gastritis endoscopiclly. ⑤ One patient got a complete regression after 3 courses of anti H. pylori therapy and was in good health after 3 years of the treatment. Conclusions ① A close relation was present between H.pyloi infection and gastric MALT lymphoma. ② Early gastric MALT lymphoma may regress after eradication of H.pylori.

Objective To investigate the self-regulation of the autonomic nervous system following the cognitive stress tests after heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback therapy in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD). Methods From May, 2013 to December, 2015, 48 patients with PSD were randomly divided into feedback group (n=25) and control group (n=23). The feedback group received HRV biofeed-back therapy, while the control group only received relaxation therapy without feedback signal. HRV parameters were tracked during the cognitive stress test in quiet baseline state, cognitive stress state, and resting state before and after treatment. Results Under the stress condi-tion, the low frequency of both groups increased during the first cognitive test, and the rate was higher in the control group than in the feed-back group (P=0.02). The heart rates during the second cognitive test decreased in the feedback group, while increased in the control group (P=0.05). After rest, the heart rate of the feedback group decreased below the baseline (P=0.02). Conclusion During the cognitive stress test, HRV biofeedback therapy can achieve a dynamic balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves by reducing sympathetic sensibility, which improved patients' adaptive capacity to cope with their internal physiological environment and external environmental pressures.

Objective To observe the effect of fenofibrate intervention on high-fructose-feeding-induced liver steatosis in rats and explore the possible mechanism. Methods Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group ,high fructose group and fenofibrate group[fenofibrate intervention started after 8 weeks of high fructose feeding ,30 mg/(kg · d)]. Rats were sacrificed after 12-week of high fructose feeding. Serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total cholesterol(TC),free triglyceride(TG)and liver TG content were determined;protein levels of fatty acid synthase(FAS),endoplasmic reticulum stress mark-er Bip and autophagy markers such as Atg7,Beclin1,LC3 and the related pathway mTOR in liver tissues were de-tected. Results Compared with those in control group and fenofibrate group,serum AST,serum total cholesterol, blood free TG and hepatic TG were significantly increased in high-fructose group(P < 0.01). The protein expres-sion of Fas,Bip and mTOR were significantly increased in high-fructose group compared with those in control group and fenofibrate group;the protein expression of Atg7,beclin1 and LC3 were significantly decreased in high-fructose group compared with those in control group and fenofibrate group. Conclusions Long-term high-fructose-feeding induces fatty liver and liver cell injury ,and may affect ERS and autophagy. High-fructose-feeding-in-duced fatty liver may be improved by fenofibrate and its underlying mechanism might be associated with Fas,ERS and autophagy in liver.
